Is there any way to mark a post as "read" simply by scrolling over it instead of clicking on it?

I see lots of app recommendations, but is there any way to do this on desktop? I really don't want to have to click on each post, but I'm tired of getting the same stuff over and over again.

Voyager is available as a PWA

That's the one I'm using but I can't get the result I'm looking for... :(

What specific feature is this? Do you all mean how a post you’ve read is a darker color when you go back, or are there different scrolling gestures options? (Not the swiping ones)

Settings -> General > Posts section > Mark Read / Hiding Posts > Mark Read on Scroll

Brand new option I was unaware of. Thank you!

Boost can do that.

mlem can do this.

Summit, Voyager, Boost, Thunder, Eternity, Connect etc.

Actually this feature is a requirement to me (as well as a button/shortcut to hid said read posts) so if a Lemmy client does not have it I just won't use it (reason number 1 why I stopped using Sync for Lemmy, it has been broken for months now).

I think Summit can do it too

This is a feature available on most apps for Lemmy I've tried.

Boost for Lemmy does this.

Another option if you want: Sync for Lemmy.

kratoz29@lemm.ee · 2 pts · 1y

Only if you have a very old Lemmy instance.

Sync is broken in this regard, it doesn't permanently hide posts anymore.

My bad. Didn't know that. I have been using Thunder and Interstellar more than Sync.
